1/6 Hot Toys - MMS285 - Avengers: AOU - Hulkbuster

[Kroatos151]

It was a glitter of hope, that the release will be sooner then expected

I (and also my Collectible Dealer) assume that it will come end of July or mid August.

 

[Motuxmen]

If it released today in Hong Kong it would be nearly July before it hit most places anyway. No chance for May.

 

[Kroatos151]

Depends, what Forbidden Planet (if not a placeholder) means with ship date. Will it come into the store on that day (Sunday) or will it will be shipped (from Hong Kong)

It's just a guess. They have listed dates for figures "confirmed" to ship 6 months from now.

So mid August is a real chance that this heavy weight figure comes up?

Or did you thinking even September?

 

[Motuxmen]

July or August seems possible. I don't think much past that.

 

[subzro]

I can almost guarantee it will be out sometime in the next 6 months.

 

[YankeesFanboy]

I doubt we'll see this in HK before August.

 

[Kroatos151]

Then eventually September on the way to us.

Giving me time to think about a display for it.

Has anybody a tip for a adequate display for the Hulkbuster?

Ikea besta

Thanks,

had the Besta line not in mind. Until now only worked with the Billy System and glas doors

 

[Kroatos151]

LOL, all this passionate guessing - if Dark Lord Dave wanted to make a pool on release dates guesses and take a commission, he'd have the funds to keep this site going for infinity (and beyond!).

I am pleased to amuse you with our guessing It is also a part of this kind of hobby (for me) .

I picked up a Besta last night with some Ikea Dioder lights.... The Hot Toys have never looked better! My man cave looks like a mini museum now. It's hard to believe that HB is going to fill an entire besta section, but I measured like 44 times and he should juuuust squeak in there!

Checked out the Besta line. Damn good Tip! And then got another idea: take a 40cm high Besta and then putting a Acryl hub on it. Found an Internet Store that made costomized hubs. Could work and the collectible could be watched from almost three sides. our living room already looks like a comicbook store the wife always says and the display would do a great job I think.

 

[Skillerwhale]

What is an Acryl hub? The main attraction of the Besta for me is that it has only one side with glass, which makes it much easier to protect the figures from sunlight.

 

[Kroatos151]

An hood of Acryl glas. Sorry my t9 is a mess. Good point with the sunlight also from my masterplan the collectible will Not be touched by direct sunlight

 

[Jellowpy]

Is this the right Besta that we are talking about? If so what can we use as a glass cover for it? Sorry Ikea noob here dont know yet how to mix and match

That's the one, they come with different options for glass door covers.

Might be worth reading through this thread.

[Nemesis243]

So we are still waiting for the Hulkbuster to arrive. I guess I should also figure out how I will display this guy. So on this Besta at Ikea how do you add a glass door as an option, or is there one on their site that already has a glass door?
